Site Lag
Posted by Kitty (#1) on 19th Jul 2010
I'm aware of the site lag that Exhibited is experiencing every so often. It's not an all day thing at the moment (thank God!) but it's becoming a problem and I'm not happy with it.

Exhibited is currently hosted on Alacrity's server, thanks to the wonderful Robyn, and is also alongside Equiverse, so the three games are battling it out for space right now.

The three of us together are monitoring what scripts are hogging the most resources and going in straight away to optimize those scripts for speed, and save resources where we can.

If by Friday the site speed hasn't improved and there are still occassional slow periods, I'll switch us over to our own server. Hopefully scale purchases will be stable enough to fund this; as a dedicated, managed server is extremely expensive. x) But so far so good!

I'd like to personally thank everyone so far for your contributions, positive feedback, donations and just general being awesome. New and old members alike, you all rock, and I hope you have tons of fun on Exhibited. Remember, the game is here for YOU, and YOU make it, so whatever suggestions, complaints or queries you have, don't hesitate to post them. Our wonderfully dedicated moderator team are here to help, as am I. :)

Thank you for your patience!

Ohh, so it is the site that's laggy. I thought it was just my browser. Take your time. ^^

I just wanted to point out:
if your computer is taking a long time to load a page or link/you feel some lag, I found that you could speed things up alittle by clicking the "stop" button on your browser and reclicking the link/button that you had before. For some reason it goes right to the page if you do that, no lag/slowdown or anything.

Take all the time you need. I think we're all just really grateful to be able to play such an awesome game. :)

Well since opening the floodgates we've jumped from around 7-8 members online at a time if we're lucky to... 33 at this time of posting?! HOLY $#!T. I don't mind a bit of lag, it loads eventually... So long as we don't crash and burn with all these new members!

Isn't Rob just so awsome? :D
